Discover the wiles that artists have employed to outwit censors. Professor Andrew Lear (world expert on gay art and four-time winner of the Harvard Certificate for Excellence in Teaching) leads this new eye-opening tour, "Scandals in Plain Sight at the Met."

Famous artists and personalities, such as Caravaggio or Gertrude Stein, will appear-but so will lesser-known artists and works whose homoerotic charge is often ignored (including images used in homosexual initiation rites in New Guinea!).

But the Village's gay history goes back a century before that, to Walt Whitman's time. Like Paris' Left Bank, the Village has been the center of all of the city's many countercultures and artistic movements, from the Bohemians of the World War I period to the Beats, the Abstract Expressionists, the New York School, Pop Art, the creators of Off (and Off-Off) Broadway, and of course the gay liberation movement.
